BROKEN PLATE RESTAURANTS IN CALGARY, ALBERTA...and OPA!!


The Broken Plate is a modern contemporary Greek Kitchen & Bar like no other. The cuisine is inventive yet approachable, while staying true to its Mediterranean origin. The Broken Plate is dramatic, with fresh colours, contemporary lighting, and modern ambiance, which is remote from the traditional whitewashed, blue-accented environment adopted by many of its counterparts. The warm urban feel offers the ideal setting to savor a glass of Greek wine and The Broken Plate's array of appetizers and entrées. Fresh high-quality cuisine, attentive Greek hospitality, and festive atmosphere await all at The Broken Plate.
The décor of The Broken Plate captures a contemporary and pristine Greek ambiance. Using the Alefantis's broad vision for the restaurant, they designed a unique restaurant space. Diners enter to view a handcrafted 5 foot high urn.
Spectacular photography of Greece, original art and romantic candlelight frame the dining room in a serene, yet exciting, manner. A festive bar, and comfortable setting, promote the perfect stage to enjoy the fine Greek wines, cuisine, and of course ouzo, for which the restaurant is known.
The Broken Plate is the only Greek establishment in Calgary that couples modern/contemporary décor, full-flavored cuisine, high-quality service, and the kefi lifestyle with each visit.

Macis Tzechilidis, Managing Director of Salonica Wines Ltd is a Greek National living in the UK. Originally from Salonica, Macis has managed and worked in many restaurants throughout Greece and the Islands. Here in the UK where he has now settled, he enjoys an association with several Greek Speciality Restaurants and has become increasingly aware that many fine wines from Greece are disappearing from restaurant menus. This is mostly due to a lack of credible suppliers not knowledgeable in reliably scourcing some of the finest wines from Greece at affordable prices.
Our imported Greek wines at reasonable prices and will allow your clientele to find out about some of the most acclaimed wines from the most important wine producing areas in Greece and the Greek Islands.
Salonica Wines  are exclusive importers of Robola wine as well as of RAPSANI A.O.C dry red wine from the slopes of the notorious Mount Olympus!!
